EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of joy and camaraderie among the boys of St Hugh's Waifs and Strays Home in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, England, circa 1906. Established in 1847, St Hugh's was one of the first homes in Britain to provide shelter and care for destitute, abandoned, and orphaned children. The home's mission was to offer a safe and nurturing environment, providing the children with essentials such as food, clothing, and education. In this image, we see a group of boys enjoying a camping trip, likely organized by the home as a way to provide them with outdoor experiences and opportunities for adventure. The boys, dressed in their simple yet functional camping attire, appear to be in high spirits as they gather around a campfire, perhaps sharing stories or roasting marshmallows. The scene is idyllic, with the boys surrounded by the beauty of nature, and the warm glow of the campfire casting a comforting light over their faces. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the important role that charitable organizations like St Hugh's Waifs and Strays Home played in providing care and support for vulnerable children in Britain during the early 1900s. It also highlights the importance of community, connection, and the simple pleasures of childhood, even in the face of adversity.
